    We can always count on Metro 8 for consistently delicious food, a varied menu and solid wine list, and a quiet setting in which we can talk with friends. Highly recommended! A favorite of ours.

    Metro 8 is a great dining place. I have been eating here since the mid ninety's. Last night was no different. We only had a couple of hiccups. The broccolini for two of my friend was cold and had to be reheated.

    Went to Metro 8 for the first time on Valentine Day. Upon making our online reservation, it was noted there will be a Valentine Day menu consisting of 3 courses for $75 pp, however the menu was not available. We arrived at Metro to find the 3 course menu (appetizer, entree, dessert) was essentially a subset of their regular menu, which the establishment used Valentine Day as a way to price gauge their customers. Our bill arrived and each of the 3 courses showed a $25 charge for a total of $75. I had the empanadas ($9 on their standard menu), churrassco ($35 on their standard menu, and tiramisu ($9 on their standard menu), these items total $53 on any other night, but Metro 8 charged $75 for these standard menu items on Valentines. Shame on Metro 8.

    We booked this restaurant for our anniversary. Very nice , solid place with the quiet atmosphere and great service. Food was 4 out of 5( tuna was way too lemony). Steak was delicious but ,according my husband, a bit chewy. My filet mignon was superb. Deserts were delicious. We loved our server- pleasant, professional, soft smile- perfect. Would recommend this place

    Had a wonderful meal before heading out to a Duke basketball game. The service was very attentive without over doing it. We had Caesar salads, empanadas, one person had the fillet, with backed potato which was big enough for two. Rest of us had the churrasco which was cook just as we asked and various side dishes. DIdn't try any desserts this time. Guess that is a good reason to go back.
